AbstractIn many composite systems it has become apparent that coatings on the reinforcements are necessary to achieve high toughness materials. In order to examine materials which may be used as coatings on ceramic monofilaments and remain stable in high temperature, oxidizing environments, the deposition of a number of refractory metals has been attempted. The results of coating experiments using silicon carbide fibers as substrates as well as general observations concerning the prospects of continuously coating long lengths of fibers will be discussed. The materials studied include carbon, cobalt, zirconium, molybdenum, tantalum, tungsten, and iridium. Carbon has been deposited from methane and propylene onto both SiC and sapphire fibers. Deposition of the metals has been achieved by direct chlorination of the metals followed by hydrogen reduction at the fiber. Iridium(III)2,4-pentanedionate has been used to deposit iridium metal. All metals were deposited at low pressure in a hot wall reactor with fibers continuously spooled through the reactor.

Abstract Duralcan F3S.xxS is a heat treatable aluminum alloy-matrix gravity composite. The base alloy is similar to Aluminum 359 (Alloy Digest Al-188, July 1969); the discontinuously reinforced composite is silicon carbide. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, tensile properties, and compressive strength as well as fracture toughness and fatigue. It also includes information on high temperature performance. Filing Code: AL-329. Producer or source: Alcan Aluminum Corporation.
